Cozy special place

Gail was an incredible host. Her bed & breakfast was incredibly cute, cozy and clean. Everyone who worked there to the guest were so kind. It genuinely felt like a home away from home.

Two-night stay. Actually, thought this was located in Bar Harbor but as it turned out preferred Prospect Harbor! Quaint and relaxing. Friendly hosts and wonderful breakfast. Just enough to start your day! We had Sarah's room and found the room size just perfect, and the bed was very comfortable.

It really wasn’t the place that was bad. It was the fact that it’s in the middle of nowhere and there’s basically nothing to do there, but I guess I should’ve understood that by reading you can hike.

Overall, the state was nice. A nice Gal greeted us on our arrival. The room was cute and pleasant however no window shade over the bathroom window, no garbage can to be found and a shelf above the bathroom sink made using the sink quite challenging. Breakfast in the morning was great.

Absolutely wonderful!! A peaceful spot along the water. I could have sat on the porch the entire stay! Breakfast was delicious! Highly recommend! PS- the info on Expedia about needing to be there by 3 pm was inaccurate! They were very accommodating!
